Tip 1: The CPUs of Intel Xeon E3 V1 and V2 series are server CPUs, and most of them do not have integrated graphics. Generally, only the CPU models with the suffix "5" have integrated graphics. For example: E3-1245, E3-1235 V2, E3-1275 V2 and other CPUs support integrated display. The Intel Core i3, i5 and i7 series processors almost all support integrated display, only the CPU model with the suffix "F" letter has no integrated display function, which is "ix-xxxxF". Pentium and Celeron "G" All series of CPUs support integrated display, such as "G840", "G630" and so on

Tip 2: If the system won't power on and the fans don't spin, verify the motherboard power and CPU power connections, confirm CPU and memory model compatibility and condition, and ensure the memory modules are properly seated; if the issue persists after checking these, clear the CMOS

Tip 3: If there's no display (fans spin but keyboard lights remain unresponsive when pressing Caps Lock), verify the motherboard and CPU power connections, ensure memory modules are properly seated, and confirm CPU/memory model compatibility and condition; if issues persist after these checks, clear CMOS

Tip 4: If there's no display (fans are spinning and the Caps Lock indicator lights up when pressing Caps Lock), verify the monitor is powered on and the display data cable is securely connected; if no external graphics card GPU is installed, confirm CPU support for integrated graphics; if an external graphics card GPU is installed, ensure the data cable is connected to its output port; check the condition of the display cable, GPU, and monitor; if the issue persists after these checks, clear CMOS
